I went out of State for the weekend and haven’t been able to watch their news but now that I’m home it seems they’re ramping up spewing high poll numbers in favor of AWB and tougher gun control. Is it just me? I wasn’t sure if I should put this here or in What’s Your Deal. Thought I’d do a reality check and make sure I’m hearing these poll statements correctly.

Fox reports the news, fair & balanced. Like it or not, that's what the polls show. FWIW, the polls also showed Hillary winning by a landslide.

The polls could be accurate, though they never asked me or any of my firearms enthusiast pals. Many people are easily swayed by the media, and they may have never considered the seriousness with giving away rights. I doubt the polls included questions that made the respondent actually think about the answer, instead phrasing them with an appeal to emotions. Hypothetical yes or no question:

"In order to save lives in schools, should semi-automatic rifles that accept high capacity magazines be banned?"

had this discussion the other day. Unless I can see what the Questions were and the provided responses , A, B, C, ETC. I disregard the poll. The term I used was engineered responses. Not sure the industry uses that term but I can get a poll to say whatever the desired result is.

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy." Winston Churchill

...Should the same poll ask "Should teachers be required to report any student with a behavioral or disciplinary problem to law enforcement to save lives?"...

How about this question "Should the school district no longer comply Obama's PROMISE system, thus requiring school resource officers to arrest students, with these offenses now being reported to NICS to save lives?"
